Good idea Om, I went to
https://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/tourdeflex.html
and tested the link for "See who is using Tour de Flex right now" because it
takes a little while to load and shows an easy to read preloader progress bar.
Safari didn't have a problem pulling from cache on the 2nd load.
My .htaccess file includes:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mycompany\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.mycompany.com/$1 [R=301,L]
Redirect permanent /index.html https://www.mycompany.com/home/
<IfModule mod_headers.c>
Header unset ETag
</IfModule>
FileETag None
<FilesMatch "\.(html|swf)$">
<IfModule mod_headers.c>
Header set Cache-Control "no-cache, public"
</IfModule>
</FilesMatch>
<IfModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 month"
ExpiresByType text/html "access plus 0 seconds"
ExpiresByType application/x-shockwave-flash "access plus 1 month"
</IfModule>

Subject: Re: Safari browser never caches my Flex application, other browsers do
Can you try any other website (ex. flex.apache.org/installer.html) to see
if you can reproduce this issue? If you can, then something is wrong with
the browser settings. If not, you will have to further tweak your
.htaccess files.
Thanks,
Om
